Honor will officially introduce the Honor Magic V6 at the MWC on March 1. While the phone is still under wraps, the company decided to offer a peek at the work it has done to make its latest flagship foldable tougher.

The V6 will be rated IP68 and IP69. IPX9-rated devices are already on the market (the Magic V5 is among them), note the first digit – “6” denotes that the phone is dust-tight. Almost every other foldable on the market is only rated “5” for dust protected (i.e. 5 means that some dust may get in but won’t damage the device, 6 means no dust gets in at all).
Honor is touting the Advanced Display Protection too, which brings high wear resistance and a reinforced inner screen with backing for the ultra thin glass (UTG). On top of that, there are low-reflectivity coatings that achieve an industry-leading reflection rate of 1.5%, says Honor.

The Magic V6 is designed with the Honor Super Steel Hinge – it is made of the strongest commercially available steel that promises top of the line structural integrity.
And to drive its point home, Honor sent Joe Weller to Thailand to go ziplining with the Magic V6 – no, not in his pocket, the phone was actually used to attach him to the zipline.
Joe Weller is about to jump… and the only thing between him and gravity is a HONOR Magic V6’s hinge. 😱😱😱
Will both the hinge and Joe survive?

Full details on the Honor Magic V6 will have to wait for the Sunday reveal. By the way, Honor will also bring the MagicPad 4 tablet and the MagicBook Pro 14 laptop to the event. It will also show off a humanoid robot in addition to the Robot Phone.
